Integrating KM Element:

Requirements to Ensuring Your KM Initiative Deliver Its Value as Promised

As Knowledge Management has evolved over the last two decades, the need for an integrated Knowledge Management framework has become apparent. With a Management Framework, KM can take on the aspects of other management systems, and be made part of normal business, rather than relying on a disparate set of tools.

Purpose

A Knowledge Management Framework ensures that all necessary KM elements (Accountabilities, Processes, Technologies, and Governance) are in place, and interconnected. This ensures that there are no gaps in the system, and that knowledge flows freely through the organization.

The elements of the Knowledge Management Framework need to not only work together but also work with the existing systems, structures, infrastructures and technologies within the company. That’s why there can be no such thing as an “off the peg” KM Framework – only Frameworks that we tailor to your own context.

Method

When building a Knowledge Management Framework, we have to make sure that we cover all of the components – all of the interlinked items – which need to be in place for knowledge management to work. We build the framework as a matrix, and to take a well-established knowledge management model for each axis of the matrix.

The current state of the Knowledge Management Framework elements is mapped during the Knowledge Management Assessment, and in addition, we use our wide experience of successful Knowledge Management companies to recommend, based on the assessment interviews, what we would recommend to be the most appropriate Knowledge Management Framework elements for your organization. The Framework is presented in a report, together with role descriptions, process descriptions, and technology functionality, where appropriate.

The elements of the Knowledge Management Framework need to not only work together but also work with the existing systems, structures, infrastructures and technologies within the company. That’s why there can be no such thing as an “off the peg” KM Framework – only Frameworks that we tailor to your own context.

Deliverables

At  the end of the activities you will get:

• Complete KM Framework with 15 KM Elements
• Best practice of concept, guidance, and tools to implement all 15 KM Elements.
